PEORIA — Incumbent Laura Petelle and challenger Suzie Wolstenholm, candidates for Peoria School District 150’s Third District, will speak from 6 to 7 p.m. Wednesday at Woodruff Career and Technical Center.

The candidates’ forum is sponsored by District 150’s teachers’ union, Peoria Federation of Teachers Local 780, and Peoria Federation of Support Staff 6099, which represents the district’s para-professionals, clerical and cafeteria workers.

Petelle and Wolstenholm are running for the only contested District 150 seat in the March 18 elections.

The Third District roughly covers the area north of Forrest Hill within District 150 boundaries.
